| Sumario: | This research analyzes the impact of financial development on economic growth for a set of 100 countries. It applies cointegration methods taking into account country heterogeneities, which have not been studied up to now at a detailed level.

(deepness, accessibility and efficiency). Mapping the estimated elasticities of economic growth to financial development, deepness and accessibility exhibit, graphically, a bellshaped quadratic form. The evidence of strong country heterogeneity suggests that policy prescriptions should take into account the idiosyncratic factors of each country. |
